    Summary

    One of Mensah's children wants to read aloud to SecUnit from a chapter book. What's the worst that could happen? (It gets so spooked by a stupid old piece of children's media hitting too close to home that it has to run off and have an emotional collapse about it, that's the worst that could happen.)

    Summary

    Ever since ART and I figured out we could effectively copy me, we’ve kept a backup of my kernel stored in its servers. That’s just good security protocol, especially after the time ART got deleted.

    The annoying part is that the duplication process is probably a kind of sex. Even though it’s nothing like human sex, if there was another way to get a viable result I’d probably prefer it. It’s not something either of us would do for fun. But nobody gets hurt if we’re really careful, so we are now.

    Life happens. People change. Like anyone, I occasionally need updates.
    It’s honestly not terrible.
